Dear friends, We are deeply grateful and humbled to celebrate Carnity's 13th birthday today. From our modest beginnings in 2010, when we set out to serve car enthusiasts, to our transition in 2017 to cater to off-road enthusiasts, Carnity has been on an incredible journey. Throughout these years, we have been incredibly fortunate to have the opportunity to touch the hearts of many. We've strived to provide solutions, bring joy, and offer a therapeutic escape for those seeking adventure on weekends. None of this would have been possible without the unwavering support of our amazing members, the dedication of our exceptional team at Carnity, and the encouragement from our external supporters. Your belief in us and your continued trust has been the driving force behind our growth and success. As we celebrate this milestone, we extend our deepest gratitude to each and every one of you. We look forward to continuing this beautiful journey together, knowing that it is your support that makes it all possible. With heartfelt thanks, The Carnity Team

I've been approved by @Gaurav to post this, just in case many eyes are rolling and looking at me virtually 🙄😅 In December 2022, I led a trip to Liwa Yellow Truck with a convoy of: Nissan Y62 stock suspension (newbie) + Mitsubishi Pajero 3.5L stock (newbie) + Chevrolet Trailblazer Z (fewbie) + 2 Jeep JL (intermediate). You can see the video here https://www.instagram.com/reel/CmZoWFxj5on/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== In March 2022, I led a trip to cross from Hameem to Al Quaa, you can see the YouTube highlights here https://youtu.be/SWJbKLMMHt8?si=rkqJYMGgalI6P0ng During Covid, I led a weekly drive called "The Path Finders - learning how to use GAIA app" mainly in Al Khatim Area (Abu Dhabi) and Al Faya Area (Abu Dhabi) initially leading 3 drives, then after that I ask each participant to "pick a waypoint and you lead us there" to practice their sense of direction and reading of both sand and GPS. Yes I have had a rollover, but that was purely my own fault. I will try my best not to let all the bad things that happened to me to my convoy members. If you've been re-routed by me when I was Center or Sweeper (mostly in Fred's drives), you will realize I always pick the easiest route for you when re-routing 😊 Who else can teach you how to avoid stuff other than a person who already went through all those stuff? 😂 What I'm looking for: 1 or 2 more candidates to join my Team Phoenix. From the name you can tell I'm a Harry Potter fan and Marvel's X-Men 😅 Ideally you should have driven with me, so you know my driving style. Ideally you drive Toyota or Jeep. This is not discrimination, if you follow my Instagram, I like fixing cars. Since I have both Toyota and Jeep, I only know these cars when it comes to how the parts orchestrate with each other. I don't like a car to break down and me as a lead not knowing how to fix it. I will subsidize 500dhs from all my Convoy Members. I don't like paying nothing while my team pays all, so as a lead, I feel financially responsible for my convoy to register without any hindrance Please WhatsApp my mobile +971-56-724-2156 if you're interested, no need to reply so you can be anonymous and keep the element of surprise! 😊 We will have Team Practice every Sunday morning, initially in Sweihan, from there we will try other places so you feel the different sands of Abu Dhabi. My Convoy so far: Toyota Land Cruiser V8 Jeep JL Jeep Rubicon Jeep Rubicon ? (ideally a Toyota here, FJ would be nice 😁 ) Kind regards, The 1st Non-Carnity Lead to try and win DCT Trophy 😅

Well done @Ahmad Nerat , emjoy the new pace 💪

Congratulations @Bashar Beasha, well deserved my friend 👏. Looking forward to see you on an Intermediate drive

The only restriction or regulation you may call is fuel will be filled in properly rated jerry cans and not in any other containers like water bottles etc. Enoc and Adnoc boys are very strict with these.

Happy B'day dear @Carnity. Wish you many many more Keep driving and continue touching lifes of many!

Happy Birthday @Carnity

Happy birthday @Carnity!

Happy birthday Carnity 🎂🎈🎉🎊. May god bless you all. 🙏

Happy Birthday @Carnity wish you all the best

Congrats Ahmad, you absolutely deserve it

Congrats @Ahmad Nerat! Am sure you r super excited for your first IM drive😁💥

i dont see there is any enforcement even if there are some regulations, the guys at petrol pump never checked on me, I could fill the cans up myself at Adnoc stations. I strap the jerry can on the second row seat instead of the tail when I was driving the LWB pathfinder, the tail part of the car tend to swing a lot and may cause damage or leakage still available for order😎

It's a bit Wild West here. Anything that looks like a jerry-can here can be purchased from any place. A lot of them are local made. I personally prefer metal ones. Refueling is indeed no issue at all. Only one time the guy asked me for my EID. Best option to store is outside the vehicle if you have a proper jerrycan holder. Another option is inside the car properly strapped in the boot, but i would only advise this if this is for a couple of hours or 1 day, like a Liwa trip or Desert Challenge

Congratulations @Ahmad Nerat, well done.

As far as Adnoc is concerned they never asked anything. I did not fill in any other fuel brand station ever. I heard that ENOC/ Emarat etc. might ask for EID and the purpose - but can't comment on it. EDIT: All the Jerry Cans I have are from Ace, the flat ones so that they can go nicely in by boot. Their nozzle sucks. They break apart. A mighty BIG Thanks to @Cha who on his own got me a couple spare ones.

@DP1011 if we win, not bad 10,000dhs from 500dhs and if we lose, well hope you don't feel bad losing 500dhs instead of 1000dhs 😂

🤔 Planing to do so.... It will be shavelling day 🤠🤠may be ill do it in November on good weather day😁😁

Amazing writeup @Zed. I now know who I will be rooting for during the DCT.
